I have an American powertrain science friction clutch. Works well. I have put about 15k miles, and a lot of track time on it.
I believe it is a monster brand clutch

It is in a 71 Camaro. We do quite a bit of road course track days. In fact ran auto club 2 weeks ago, and got back from Spring Mountain last night. Both days the car was driven 6 hours one way. We also pull a small trailer with the car.
Engines have been a 406 that ran low 13 sec, w 3600# car
flat tappet 408 afr heads
roller cam afr heads 408
and currently a alum headed 383.

We put the latest engine in 2 months ago. Clutch still looks great.

This is the clutch when new

^ Sounds like a pretty decent testimonial to me.

Mine is still in the box but I bought the 1126 Stage 1 "Mean Street" rated for 580 foot pounds.
